How does the ocean influence climate?

Physics
1 answer:
Mazyrski [523]3 years ago
4 0
<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>

A 236 g cart moves on a horizontal, frictionless surface with a constant speed of 26.9 cm/s. A 66.1 g piece of modeling clay is
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The final speed of the system is 21 cm/s.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the cart (M) = 236 g

Initial velocity of the cart (U) = 26.9 cm/s

Mass of the clay (m) = 66.1 g

Initial velocity of the clay (u) = 0 cm/s (At rest initially)

Let the final velocity of the system be 'v'.

Now, total initial momentum is given as:

Initial momentum = Initial momentum of cart + Initial momentum of clay

P_i=MU+mu\\\\P_i=236\times 26.9+0=6348.4\ g\cdot cm/s

Final momentum of the system is given as:

Final momentum = Total mass × Final velocity

P_f=(M+m)v\\\\P_f=(236+66.1)v\\\\P_f=302.1v

Now, from conservation of total momentum, final momentum is equal to initial momentum. So,

P_f=P_i\\\\302.1v=6348.4\\\\v=\frac{6348.4}{302.1}=21\ cm/s

Therefore, the final speed of the system is 21 cm/s.

What is the change in internal energy if 70 J of heat is added to a system and
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

A. 40 J

Explanation:

Given;

heat added to the system, Q = 70 J

work done by the system, W = 30 J

The change in the internal energy of the system is calculated using the first law of thermodynamic as shown below;

ΔU = Q - W

ΔU = 70 J - 30 J

ΔU = 40 J

Therefore, the  change in the internal energy of the system is 40J
